Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: We purchased a 2004 nissan armada in march of 2004. since almost day one we have had ongoing brake problems (mostly rotor and caliper related). in january of 2006, my wife and three of my children were in the car when the brakes completely failed. fortunately, my wife was able to drive up an embankment and stop the vehicle before anyone was hurt. the diagnosis was a failed delta stroke sensor in the brake booster. a repair was made, but since that time we experienced intermittent warning lights for the vehicle dynamic control and slip. last week we started to experience severe steering wheel and brake vibration. we took the vehicle in for service and the diagnosis was a failed abs unit, a burned out 4 wheel drive computer, and a failed switch in the brake booster. these parts have been replaced, but the vehicle is still showing errors when hooked up to the diagnostic computer and is still under repair, but nobody is sure (including nissan) what the problem is. i feel that this vehicle is unsafe to drive. *nm |
